Shelterwoods Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I am one week new to BMW's, and my R1250RS in particular. I would like to know how to turn off or reset service warnings. I have scheduled a first service in about 5 days, but I have a service warning for that service that keeps showing up. I can make the warning dialog disappear, but it shows up each time I start the bike, and there is a warning triangle on the dashboard screen. Thanks in advance for any help. Del Link to comment
92Merc Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 You need a device. GS911 and Motoscan are the most popular. You can search those on here... Link to comment
AndyS Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Yep, you are stuck with that until you get your service done...or you override it with the kit 92Merc spoke of. Me...i can live with it! Link to comment

Where is the OBD connection, under the rider or pillion seat? I have a scan tool already, if I have an adapter, will a typical Snap-on tool work? Del Link to comment

Only GS911's and the Motoscan app are what I hear works,.....and the Motoscan app DOES work. Link to comment

The 1250RS has an OBD2 connector just like a car. I do not believe that the Snap on tool will work to reset the service light, the GS911 or Motoscan will be required. Link to comment
